I was interested to hear that so many of you favour electronic tuners. Tried them but, whilst some are accurate on open strings, (not all I hasten to add!)they don't help in acheiving 'tempered' tuning, so when you move around the neck or put a capo on, the thing goes out of tune (don't tell me how to put a capo on properly, I use Rick Fieldings suggested method and it works!). I now use a tuner just to get the pitch for bottom E and then tune the rest by ear using the tempered tuning method using harmonics on the 5th & 12th frets (subject of a thread some months ago). Sounds way better, holds tuning all over and keeps my ear in practice for quick 'between numbers' adjustments and retunes.
